Meeting Barack
Thursday I had the opportunity to meet Senator Barack Obama in Indianapolis. What a day!

The Soul that You Have Given Me, O God, is a Pure One
I have been coming closer and closer to the line between genderqueer and transgender. At times I feel I have stepped over it, but I am not sure. For the first time, I feel confused concerning myself. Confusion is a strange state in which to be, and I don't like it.
In many ways, my life would be easier as a transman than as a genderqueer person. There would be an actual identity box, if you will, for me to live in, as opposed to the lack thereof. The answers would be ready-made, at least most of them. However, I'm not sure that simply being masculine is enough to push me over the line.
I do know that either way, I am secure in the knowledge that I am created in the divine image, but I just wish I had some answers right now.

Explaining my absence from blogging
I am currently an intern for the Obama campaign and thus have been busy. Having a little bit of insomnia I am able to write. Not much new is happening, but it looks like there's a shot for Obama to win in Indiana, which would be nothing less than incredible. I will be able to post more when the campaign is over. Shanah tovah um'tukah.
